Killzone: Shadow Fall

For those following the Killzone saga — we’re three console shooters plus two handheld versions along — this fourth installment takes place 30 years after Killzone 3, and at least up front seems to want us to think it’s taken a more introspective turn.

You play as an ISA special agent (a kind of futuristic marshal) drawn into an internecine conflict between Helghast and Vektan rival factions, forced to live together in a sprawling city and separated by an enormous security wall.
